Tidelands And Texas Democrats
A few weeks ego Gov. Shivers it was reported
told friends he .planned to go fishing the day the
national election is held. Previously he had announc-
ed his opposition to his party's presidential nominee
based upon his disagreement with Gov. . Stevenson
on the tidelands oil issue. But even at the time he
left the door at least slightly ajar for switching and
boarding the Democratic boat Seemingly he wanted
to wait to find how the Texas political winds were
blowing.
As indicated by late news from Austin Mr. Shivers
has receded from his former position. Though he is
still agin" Stevenson I am going to vote he is quot-
ed as saying. He added that he had no intention of
supporting the Republican ticket and he was op-
posed to permitting Ikes name to appear on both
ballots in Texas as the presidential nominee.
Apparently Mr. Shivers has traveled quite a dis-
tance from the station where he started soon after
the national convention. Possibly he has been hearing
tidings from the forks of the creeks. Despite the im-
1 ! portance of tidelands ownership to his state whether
the majority of Texas voters will follow his leader-
ship on this issue is extremely doubtful It is likely
the mass of the plain people" regard it mostly as
a matter of interest to oil magnates and hence of
little or no concern to them.
Long ago Texas Democrats formed the vote er
straight habit and only rarely notably when A1
Smith was the nominee have they dropped it Ad-
mittedly Ike has a large following among Longhorn
upper bracketers. But we are guessing they are not
sufficiently numerous to turn the tide against Adlai
Stevenson.
The proposal for a state road bond issue fails to
win favor with The Ada Evening News. Pointedly
our esteemed contemporary comments editorially:
We ought to finance any road and highway con-
struction as we go. Regardless of the protestations
of the bond advocates bonds will raise taxes or they
will curtail the road building the next few years.
And young man remember this. The taxes of this
state are as high as we can stand and maintain a
competitive basis with other states. Any increase
in taxes for any cause under the sun is dangerous
indeed. This is a good time for all citizens to come
to the defense of their state and the enemy we are
facing at this time is greater taxes.
At last Henry Wallace has seen the light. In a re-
cent magazine article he recants the sympathetic
views toward Soviet Communism he had spouted for
years. We are glad he discovered the error in his
thinking and has the courage to make a candid con-
fession. Perhaps his turn-about will to some extent
tend to undo the harm he has done by upholding the
Red banner. .
.
The Oklahoma Safety Council has proposed to
take the highway patrol out of politics. Its plan calls
for the appointment of a three-man commission by
the governor which would select the state safety
commissioner. The scheme suggested seems to be
sound and would be a step in the right direction.
While it would not likely prove to be air-tight it is
calculated to improve a department of public service
in which political influence should play no part what-
ever. Ten Years Ago

spokesman' and Herb Brownell
Gov. Tom Deweys representative
tn the strategy board and the man
who largely managed Ikes nom-
ination strategy at Chicago. '
Most outspoken critic among
these has been Governor Adams
who in the behind-the-scenes ses-
sions has declared bluntly he
would not abdicate to Summer-
field and the national committee.
Summerfields first pitch was to
start the campaign early and get
it rolling in August But Adams
and Seaton argued that vice-presidential
candidate : Dick Nixon
should start in August so the pub-
lic could get acquainted with him
before Eisenhower took' the spot-
light Ike hiihseH they urged
should hold off until September.
The general agreed. He said a
political campaign was like a
military campaign.
"Once you start you've got to
follow through and keep Increasing
the pressure he argued - behind
closed doors. But he said he would
leave the- decision up to Adams
and Seaton who then overruled
Summerfield and decided that Ike
should hold his political fire until
the last six weeks of the campeign.
' Summerfield also fought for
moving Eisenhowers campaign
headquarters to Washington whera
the national committee could take
a more active part Moat of the
backstage advisers agreed that
Denver was a poor location be-
cause of the three-hour time lag
making it difficult to get press
releases in the big eastern papers.
Senator Carlson of Kansas want-
ed to stay in the middle west and
suggested Chicago as a headquar-
ters but Dewey wes anxious to
move the headquarters east In
the end Adams agreed to setting
up a headquartrs in Washington.
But instead of putting it under
the national committee Adams
personally came to Washington to
head it up and ride herd on Sum-
merfields crowd.
